Love for Prince

Many years ago.. as a child, I first heard the beautiful sounds of Prince.

My mother singing word for word in the car or while cooking dinner.

Obviously, I also grew to love Prince.

As I grew older, I wanted to find my soulmate to sing and listen to Prince with.

I found him!

Timmy is pretty hardcore, but he will still jam out to some Prince with me!

We loved listening to "Purple Rain" & "Kiss" especially.

As we fell inlove with one another, I would often sing "Kiss" to him.. especially when we were away from one another.. He loves the way I sing "I just want your extra time and your [[muah muah muah muah muah]] kiss]..

I can not believe the legend of pop passed away today.

It seems as if alot of celebs are passing away.

It really saddens me!

I will continue to jam out to Prince and I will also be that mama jamming at the stove, singing in front of my kids.. not torturing, but teaching them about a man with true talent.

Well, folks.. go have your at home concert!

Jam out to Prince, the King of Pop.

He deserves it!

I know my ancestors, and all of the other fans are receiving such a beautiful concert in Heaven.

It is raining tonight here in Georgia, my ancestors must be sending me a souvenir.

Too many carbs && too much sodium!

Today, I have started a healthier diet.. not that the way I was doing it before wasn't working. I just wasn't receiving the results that I wanted! Counting calories is not my plan anymore. I'm sure I will actually come in way below 1200 calories a day with my new changes.

Eatting under 1200 calories definitely works.. so if that is the best plan for you, that is fine! I weighed in March 3rd at my heaviest of 158 lb. and today I weighed in at 151.4 lb. -- over 6 lb of weight loss!

I am going to be consuming a low sodium diet & I will also be watching my carb intake. My goal for sodium is around 1000 mg & carbs is 150 g at the highest. I will elevate sodium levels if I feel dehydrated or sick.

NO more diet sodas! They may be 0 calories, but the sodium and other ingredients are not beneficial to your health or weight loss!

Fruits & Veggies! & lean meats! Trading milk for almond milk & processed cereals for organic :) I'm going with Kashi.

I pray by the end of the week, I see better results than I have in the past 3 weeks :)

No more splurging! I want a healthier, happier lifestyle that I can make part of my forever life!
(This does not mean that I can not enjoy family functions and holidays, just on the average day.. be HEALTHY!)

Anyone want to share low sodium meals with me and the other readers? I would love to see them!

Easter Sunday

We had such a blessed Easter Sunday! Spending time with family and friends is one of our main priorities. We spent our day with Timmy's side of the family. I made a "Dirt Pudding Carrot Patch" cake and it was a hit! YAY! We had a wonderful meal and will have fond memories of all the special moments. We love watching the kiddos run around full of life and love. Our cousin's daughter was telling us how she had won a prize for knowing a bible verse, I love hearing things like that. So many people are not teaching children about religion and it breaks my heart! Easter is so much more than candy, Easter eggs, and toys. I will treat my children with egg hunts, Easter baskets, and such.. but they will also know about our savior. We are all so blessed, and we have the one above to thank for that! While visiting my mother-in-laws later during the evening, we looked out upon the pond. It was so peaceful! Nature is so lovely, nothing like ending an Easter day with the feeling of being blessed. The photo above shares my view and I love the bible verse upon it. Feel free to save and print, it is free :)

I hope you all had a blessed day and I love you all!

Easter Sunday

I hope that you have all had a very blessed weekend thus far!

Timmy and I have had a blessed Saturday. Spent time watching some shows on television together and went to Jim n' Nicks BBQ to eat dinner, which was AMAZING! I splurged on my diet and enjoyed myself. I tend to steer clear of counting calories on the weekend. I will weigh in next Thursday to see what I have lost thus far. :)

What are your plans for Easter Sunday? Do you have kids? If so, did you dye eggs? Anyone want to share some cool eggs? I would love to see your creations :)

We are going to be spending time with Timmy's family tomorrow. I'm bummed that is going to be rainy here in Georgia.. but spending time with the family is always fun. We do not have kids, but love to watch all of the family kiddos run around and find eggs.

I created a few Easter photos if you would like to steal them, feel free :)

I hope you have a wonderful Easter Sunday!
